About this listen
From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them.
With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.

Story
They say you shouldn't ask your mom whether your business is a good idea, because she loves you and will lie to you. This is technically true, but it misses the point. You shouldn't ask anyone if your business is a good idea. It's a bad question, and everyone will lie to you at least a little. As a matter of fact, it's not their responsibility to tell you the truth. It's your responsibility to find it, and it's worth doing right.

Best business book ever!
I have read a lot of business books but this one has to be the best. It really makes you rethink about business and how to run your business. No more board rooms or meetings are required or 60 hour work weeks. I live the corporate model and basically lived at the office sacrificing my life at home. I transferred that same mentality when I started my own company: successful people work, work and work some more rarely seeing their own bed or family. Not so anymore! I strongly urge you to read or listen to rework. It will change your life and how you do things.

Collection of small advices/critics
Most advices are 2min long and sound like opinions. I also found the examples not very convincing. I understand that these advices come from experience but unless you are a big fan of Basecamp, you'll have to blindly trust these advices since there are not well supported in the book.
I did like the "minimalist" advices though, we rarely hear that in the business world and they make sense to me.
Not a bad book but 1 Audible credit seems expensive considering all the masterpieces or otherwise excellent book you can get for the same price.
The voice was flawless.
